CFC51 - Happy 1st Birthday!

Thankfully more time was given to submit for the challenge and I'm squeaking in my entry in the nick of time!

﻿

﻿After embossing this fun image from Hero Arts G5596 For You Gifts I did a combination of coloring and paper piecing. Papertrey ink's Background Basics Gingham was stamped with Hero Arts Green Hills shadow ink to create the "grass". The "sun" was created by sponging Hero Arts Butter Bar shadow ink in the negative piece of a circle die cut. The "rays" of the sun are actually the birthday cake candle from Hero Arts CL576 Wish Big set. Sentiment is from that same set. Finally, Hero Arts CG422 Zig Zag was white embossed on the base card.

Hi Robin! Oh man, I really love your sun, what a really neat idea! Beautiful paper piecing too! Thank you for all the lovely comments you have been leaving on my blog, I really appreciate every single one!

Absolutely adorable Robin....you are the Queen of making little, intimate scenes on your cards. The sun is perfect. I am glad to see/hear that you are trying to enter more challenges too....what a great idea to keep a calendar/log....good luck and thank you for all your sweet comments!
